ALTANA AG

ACTEGA is a division of the internationally active specialty chemical company ALTANA. ACTEGA Coatings & Sealants develops and produces coatings and sealants, printing inks and adhesives for flexible and rigid packaging and for the graphic arts industry. These products not only lend an attractive appearance to materials such as paper, paper board, plastic and metal, but also provide clearly defined chemical and physical properties to the materials' surface.

Graphic Arts: The main customers for the products ACTEGA develops, manufactures and markets are in the packaging industry. ACTEGA is the market leader in overprint varnishes and is the technological leader in the rapidly expanding sector of water-based sealants for flexible packaging. ACTEGA products not only ensure that the packaging will look appealing, but also that the contents will remain fresh longer.

Converting Specialties: ACTEGA is already the world's leading vendor of sealants for closures and glass containers; ACTEGA is also the technological leader when it comes to water-based sealants for cans. These products are used to make seals between the contact surfaces, such as glass on metal (bottle closures) or metal on metal (can lids). They ensure that the contents and other substances such as CO2 remain inside the packaging while "locking out" all contaminants.
